Listen Later

Author, broadcaster, former ballroom dancer and indylive.radio DJ Frank "Frankie boy" McGroarty has just released the third of his trilogy of books based on his time as a redcoat at Butlins Ayr.  In this interview, James E and Frank chat about the creative process, what it was really like working at Butlins (spoiler:  yes, people regularly asked "what time is the midnight show on") and which of the characters is most closely based on Frank himself.

Frank has a website www.frankmcgroarty.com and his three books, "What time does the Midnight cabaret start", "how do you get the donkey up the stairs" and "don't mention hi-de-hi" are available at good bookshops.
